If anyone wants my advice on how they should bet in their Oscar pool, they should go
here. Note: I have never actually won an office Oscar pool (though I did win the informal Bayard's-Oscar-party competition at least once. Possibly only for the 2001 movies/2002 awards -- where I predicted Moulin Rouge for Best Picture and still won. I also called Adrien Brody winning the following year. That's pretty much where my badassery ceases in this area).
